-HC- Special Nessus Event
Friday April 12th 2:00pm east coast US Time (Date and Time have some flex as we are trying to get all the top -HC- players involved in this effort!)
Before you panic! And get ready to transfer all your valuable gear to a bank mule!
Keep in mind that this is a special event, thus something fun and different for the -HC- community which has often been overlooked for events in the past.
So this is how the event will work:
Your favorite -HC- characters will be copied to the Development Server, this will keep your -HC- on the live servers safe.
Then you will get to run a full -HC- Nessus!
For many -HC- only players, this will be the first time they will get to see what all the horror war stories are about!
We will help this intrepid group to form a full balanced party for the event so.
Bard teleben Druid legaldeeds Cleric Porticusa Arcane Saller Aseph Arcane Tank Amano23 Tank SmilingCrow Tank Oren (for now) Misc Hackenslay Misc
We will sign you up on a first come first served bases, please bring only your top characters as this will be epic!
No Demi tags will be given for this event, but there will be amazing prizes (They really are worth dying for!)
And if our heroes prevail and Asmo falls then the prizes will be BEYOND amazing indeed!
When you sign up:
Please provide your login, character name, and class.

Special Notes:
Please keep your top characters safe until the event.
Do work on leveling them up, gearing them and collecting consumables.
I will be posting this on the HGHC forums as well but please post your sign ups on the main forum.
The HGHC forum can be used to plan group composition, strategy, get gearing help etc.
Please feel free to ask questions about any consumables you may need. We really want you guys to have the best possible chance of winning so please feel free to ask.

Hey Niilo,
So glad you like the event.
Please don't think that these events are mine somehow. They require a team effort and all of the DM/Dev staff should get far more credit than me, as they are the ones who do the heavy lifting behind the scenes for these events.
It would be great to do a video feed though no promises as my comp does not like xfire very much.
Btw, I was already asked via PM if players that wish to sign up; can opt out of rewards for the event and just enjoy the experience and the fun. I thought it was important to share that if you just want the fun and not any kind of reward simply pass at the loot split and no worries.

Great idea but I cant make it. During the week is tough do to my random work schedule. I also have me a nice newborn who loves to keep me very busy and the 3-5 hour run would make him very unhappy.. Good luck, i hope it goes though.
I guess i will just stick with my 2 man abyss runs.

I would love to attend this, but my best HC hero is at lvl 47 atm .. (cough cough) Hopefully you can do some more runs of this kind in the future Bad. I bet the prices for a open race ripping Asmo apart would exeed my wildes dreams, but mostly it will be fun to see how far I can make it. (Hopefully past the first miserable spawn.)
Also, if this can be done in a EU friendlier time and in a weekend...

When I saw the subject I thought "HC Nessus? Must be an April Fools' Day prank" but it seems real...With a copy on Dev Server, oki doki.
I've no hells ready HC yet. But working on it for the next time.
My bet: First spawn wipe.

HUGE PROPS TO THE DEV TEAM FOR THIS !!!!!' I am literally jumping for joy and my lvl60 HC wiz would love to go. That being said I can't as I am in a eu time zone and have work..... If this was on a Friday or Saturday and eu friendly I would try Really hard to make it. Ps. I dont have Tia tag yet since it seems close to impossible to get 5 hoc men to do a Tia that are all in the same time zone Best regards Samir Aseph

This is EU friendly isn't it?
I thought 2pm Eastern was 7pm UK and 8pm for most of mainland Europe.
Login: teleben Possible characters: -HC- Tele Highnote (lvl 62 Bard) -HC- Tele Uldorath (lvl 73 Str Tank) -HC- Tele the Undermaster (lvl 65 Pariah)
Happy to use my Chaos Gnome Bard if no one has a better one.

We would l like for as many Players to make this event as possible. Special events are not very likely to be repeated as it would be more "special" to do something fresh each time.
Since I have some flex in my schedule would it be more helpful for everyone if it was possible to move this to Friday April 12th around 1:00-2:00pm east coast US which is 6-7 UK time?
I would need to check to see if that time slot would be available to copy the characters over but lets start by finding out if more of you could make that time. Also that gives all of you more time for characters to be leveled up geared etc.

The weekend would probably be better. Not a lot of HC action during the week. Maybe this even will spur some people into action.
The first HC Nessus run. Sort of.
